Preferred Label : Occult macular dystrophy;

Symbol : OCMD;

CISMeF acronym : OCMD; OMD;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : OMD;

Description : Occult macular dystrophy is characterized by progressive decline of visual acuity in both eyes, associated with a normal fundus and normal fluorescein angiography. Patients have normal full-field electroretinograms (ERGs) but severely reduced focal macular ERGs, as recorded by conventional techniques using small stimuli under background illumination. OCMD patients are believed to have localized retinal dysfunction distal to the ganglion cells in the central retina (summary by Piao et al., 2000).;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the RP1-like protein 1 gene (RP1L1, 608581.0001);
